AutomationDirect GCX1202-120 Illuminated Push Button

GCX1202-120 is a 22 mm metal illuminated momentary pushbutton from AutomationDirect, designed for panel mounting in control panels, machines, and industrial equipment. It provides a single normally open contact and uses incandescent illumination, suitable for 120 VAC or 120 VDC operation, and it carries an IP65 ingress protection rating for dust ingress and water jets in harsh environments. The device features a rugged metal base and bezel, a flush operator with a green plastic ring and a colored plastic ring for visual coding, and a 30 mm exterior ring that helps alignment in panel cutouts. It is UL Recognized (File E189258) and RoHS compliant, with Italy listed as the country of origin. The standard GCX 22 mm platform supports compact, high-visibility signaling in control enclosures, making it a common choice for start/stop signaling, machine-control panels, and operator-indication tasks in industrial automation where a reliable, momentary green indicator is required. The unit's incandescent lamp delivers a warm, steady glow and compatibility with 120 VAC or 120 VDC circuits, simplifying integration in mixed voltage environments, while the sealed construction helps maintain performance in dusty or wet workshop settings.
